Maximum LUN Configuration and Considerations for HP-UX

Roadmap/Futures
To meet future customer needs, the maximum LUNs supported by HP-UX will continue to increase. The
HP-UX development team is also working on significantly decreasing the overheads associated with
managing, scanning, and displaying large numbers of LUNs to provide streamlined management of
large storage attachments.
